Drone above flat roofs during survey
Flat Roof

Flat roof survey by drone.

Precise flat roof survey including all structures – without roof access, in 24 hours.

Project fit

Input in. Target system out.

The first job of this page is clarity: what you send, what you receive, and which target systems the handoff is built for.

Your input

  • Drone images of flat roof and surroundings
  • Building address and property boundaries
  • Purpose of survey (PV, renovation, structural, FM)
  • Optional: Scale reference or RTK data

Your output

  • Flat roof area measurement in m²
  • 3D model with roof drainage, vents, parapet
  • Orthophoto with scale
  • Slope analysis and drainage planning
  • Floor plans and site overview

Search intent & use case

Why drone-based flat roof measurement is more cost-effective and safe

Traditional measurements require roof access, scaffolding, safety protocols, and coordination with occupational safety regulations. This takes time, costs money, and carries risks. Drone surveying eliminates these hazards: measurement is done in minutes, data is complete and precise, and costs are significantly lower than traditional methods.

For facility managers and solar teams handling multiple flat roofs, the per-project savings quickly add up. Plus, the digital archive enables quick re-measurements, historical comparisons, and documented asset management.

Use cases

PV layout planning on flat roofs considering all obstacles
Roof membrane inspection and renovation planning with accurate area data
Facility management and periodic roof monitoring
Inventory and asset tracking on rooftops
